LONDON (AP) — British-Jamaican actor Micheal Ward was acquitted Friday of rape and other charges in a London court on allegations he sexually assaulted a woman in the back of a friend’s Mercedes in 2023.
Ward, 28, who starred in the Netflix crime drama “Top Boy,” sobbed after a jury in Snaresbrook Crown Court found him not guilty of two counts of rape, two counts of assault by penetration and one count of sexual assault.
Ward has appeared in films including “Blue Story,” “The Book of Clarence” and last year’s American political satire “Eddington,” alongside Joaquin Phoenix and Pedro Pascal.
